Hunqapillar

January 21, 2010

It's a long way off, maybe July. It's all designed, prototypes will arrive in two months. The LAST part of this or any bike is the head badge. About fourteen or fifteen years ago I was in the chair at the dentist's office, I saw some pictures on the wall of birds dressed up like dentists, and I asked and fournd out that one of the patients drew them, and he was 16 or 17. I got his name, Andrew Denman, and eventually he did the Heron poster.

The Heron was a line (of two bikes) we co-developed a long time ago.

The kid's name was Andrew Denman, and he's thirty-one now and well-known among wildlife artists. His site is here:

We needed a wooly mammoth for the head badge of the Hunqapillar (pronounce the Q like it's a K), and Andrew lives about seven miles from here, so I contact him, and he agreed to draw one for us, for the head badge.

Next week or earlier we'll put Hunqapillar information here or somewhere on the site, but all we have now is the sketch of the wooly mammoth.
